your data can maximise outputs, reduce risk, increase profit, and help you know your customers better.

 

In many organisations, data is often seen as the job of the analysts, despite the fact that there is a growing expectation that all employees make evidence-informed decisions.

unfortunately, many people have not been trained in how to use and respond to data, yet everyone needs to be able to ‘talk data’.

The challenge is that the truth contained in data isn’t being utilised when employees are making strategic decisions. This means that the potential that exists to find opportunities, reduce risk, and generally make better decisions, is lost.

When we truly understand our data and can talk about what it’s telling us in ways that are persuasive and powerful, then we can maximise organisational outcomes and profit, improve the impact of organisations on people and the planet, and minimise the risk of whatever we engage in.

I work with corporates and NFPs to:

  • assist leaders in developing a strategic approach to organisational data;

  • up-skill employees to deeply understand the data that is relevant to their roles, and how to talk about it in ways that get others on board; and

  • build capacity in telling effective data stories.

 ways we can work together

  • FULL DAY WORKSHOP

    While our organisations are awash with data, we’re frequently unclear on what data we actually need, how to get it, and how we will use it when we do have it.

    This workshop helps leaders to get clarity on the data that they need, and their expectations about how others in the organisation will contribute to, and use, it.

    LEARNING OUTCOMES

    Clarity on the current reality of how data is collected and used

    Clear expectations for the future about how data will be collected and used

    Time with their team to unpack and plan future directions and next steps, resulting in an action plan to implement the data strategy

    WHO IS THIS PERFECT FOR?

    Executives and team leaders seeking to zoom out and strategise about their use of data. It is an opportunity to 'think big' and plan future options and directions.

  • FULL DAY WORKSHOP

    Once a data strategy is in place, a data plan is used to clarify and outline the data that teams and individuals use. This workshop unpacks key inclusions needed for an effective data plan, and provides time for teams to develop their own.

    LEARNING OUTCOMES

    Unpack organisational goals and aspirations

    Know which data is important to your organisation and your team

    Understand the value of using multiple sets of data to inform decision making, rather than just one

    Develop a draft data plan for broader consultation

    WHO IS THIS PERFECT FOR?

    Executives and team leaders needing to create a plan for how they want their people engaging with and using data.

  • HALF OR FULL DAY WORKSHOP

    In this workshop we will collaboratively translate the organisations data plan and the obligations in it down into the individual roles in the team.

    LEARNING OUTCOMES

    An understanding of what data is most important for them (in their individual roles) to collect.

    A strategy for how each individual intends to use and respond to the data.

    An understanding of the role they can play in knowing and using the numbers.

    WHO IS THIS PERFECT FOR?

    Teams.

  • FULL DAY WORKSHOP

    Data can not have an impact until we can talk about it in ways that are readily understood by others. In order to make great data-informed decisions, we need to be able to have data-informed conversations.

    This workshop allows participants to explore how to have those conversations in their teams, and across the broader organisation, so that data-informed decisions become the norm.

    LEARNING OUTCOMES

    An understanding of how to, and new ability to actually, have a great data-informed conversation in a range of different contexts and teams.

    WHO IS THIS PERFECT FOR?

    Everyone in the organisation.
